I am new to the book writing world. I hold two associates degrees. I was a youth football, basketball, and baseball coach for 14 years. I have two sons of my own and have been married for nearly 22 years. One would think that with a work history such as my own, that children's fiction would not be the route I chose. Coaching youth sports is what I think drove me in that direction. I enjoy connecting to kids and helping them understand life lessons, but in ways that are simplified so that they can understand them.
